This was my first time to Portugal. Sisempra seemed boring until Andre took me through all the back roads. I was pleasantly surprised at my experience. We stopped at a 9th Century Moorish Castle and a stunningly beautiful blue tiled church. Continuing on the back roads through acres of ancient cork oaks, Andre stopped to pick some tree strawberries I never knew existed. Andre was a true nature scientist who knew all about the topography and history of the region. We continued through beautiful farms and vineyards and around the South side of Arrabica to a quaint seaside village near the Oceanarium. Next we stopped for a short hike down to a sea cave shrine commemorating the passing of two local fishermen who were caught in some rogue waves. We climbed up by car over beautiful scenic mountains I never knew existed in Portugal including the highest limestone mountain in Europe that was shaped like a wave. The whole trip I will remember for a lifetime.

I booked this trip for my parents, who are coming from China and visiting me in Costa. The whole experience is excellent. Communication from beginning to end is very smooth and Antonio is very friendly, thoughtful, trustworthy and knowledgeable about the Seisimbra region, his hometown. Even though my parents could not speak English and needed to communicate through ChatGPT and translation apps, they told me that they were genuinely happy with the trip -- the sea view was truly amazing for them, who have been travelling in Portugal and Spain for quite some places. And the Arrabida mountain stops are very thoughtful. The introduction to the local restaurant is highly appreciated...Overall - highly recommended for people who want to enough a trip blending forest, mountain and sea views.

We had the most amazing tim on this experience with Antonio. He was at our hotel ahead of time to meet us and after arriving at the jeep we got going. It was so much fun and a wild bumpy journey to the first spot. He's so knowledgeable about the history of the spots and is very relaxed about us taking our time to enjoy it to the max. At the beach stop he made food and drink recommendations and even had a blanket and umbrella for us to use on the beach. We booked as a surprise for our friends birthday and she said its the best birthday she's had and couldn't have thought of a better way to spend the day!

Our family loved the day out. Our tour guide, Andre, was exceptionally knowledgeable - one of the friendliest and most genuine people you’ll meet. Nothing was too much. Myself and my family learnt so much about the region over the 6 hours we spent with Andre. He’s a gem and I’ll definitely be booking a trip with him again when we visit next year. Make sure you take your swimming gear so you get to make the most of the beautiful beach he’ll take you to. This is a great part of Portugal and was made even more special by Andre.

This excursion was amazing!! Our tour guides were wonderful and knowledgeable. They took such great care of us and went at our pace. They even allowed us to stay at the beach longer because we were enjoying ourselves so much. Thank you for making this a trip we will never forget.
